Bella Donna Face Off:Round 1
 
Ok..So since the Album Cover Face Off was a pretty good hit amoung a lot of people. I got a lot of PMs saying how much they liked it and how I should do others...So I thought I'd do this.

My thoughts for this face off would be...we would do a face off for every album and at the very end we would have an "ULTIMATE Stevie Song Face Off" of the winners from each album...Good idea?!?! Well I liked it

So we will start off with Bella Donna since its Stevie's first solo album. We will vote for our LEAST favorite song off of this album til we are down to the winner.

Round 1 will end Wednesday(Sept. 17) @ 3pm

Yaaay, first reply! I voted for Leather and Lace, I've just never liked that song. I think it's too long. But I'm not really a fan of How Still my Love. LOL, quite personally, I prefer Wild Heart to Bella Donna!

Enchanted_Stevi 09-16-2008 12:33 PM

I chose Highway Man...not my cup 'o' tea for a Stevie song

strandinthewind 09-16-2008 12:36 PM

I voted off How Still My Love -- I just was never into, not even live.

skcin 09-16-2008 12:58 PM

I wonder if the results will be different from the last time we did this.

I voted for L&L. Barf.

TheWILDheart 09-16-2008 01:21 PM

that's FAR too difficult to vote any song if this album. I love them all WAY too much!

fleetwoodtrick 09-16-2008 01:25 PM

TheWILDheart:

LMAO at your signature!

agnes121275 09-16-2008 02:58 PM

YAY!!!

I love these...

I am voting off L&L because I am not a Don Henley fan!!

I like the live versions of this song with Lori and Sharon, though!!

I stand in agreement on this comment... "BARF"!!!!!

(Barf on the album version, of course!!):p

I voted for Stop Draggin' My Heart Around. This song just doesn't do anything for me. I usually skip it.

That is an intense statement!! :laugh:

Travis 09-16-2008 06:05 PM

Think About It is one of those great songs most people tend to over look. Its upbeat, it has a positive message and sadly it will lose out to the tired Stop Draggin' My Heart Around. :distress:

Hawkeye 09-16-2008 06:15 PM

All right, this face off is going to be way funner. I was kind of indifferent to voting on album covers, but the songs are gonna be a different story.

I'm voting off After the Glitter Fades. It's the only song I skip on Bella Donna.

gold_dust 09-16-2008 08:46 PM

Voted for Highway Man. I never really cared for it that much, and thought it was a weak effort on Stevie's part, considering she had some killer demo's from that time.

SandyMac 09-16-2008 09:10 PM

Same here, never cared for Highway Man

That seems to be the general statement that a lot of people have. I've never really had a problem with the song though.

galestreet 09-16-2008 09:14 PM

this one is easy
 
My least favorite song is Leather and Lace. It never sounded authentic to me.:shrug:

michelle2677 09-16-2008 09:17 PM

the highwayman. it's the only song of stevie's that i hate.

baboles 09-16-2008 09:35 PM

How could anyone hate "Highway Man" or "Leather and Lace"?!

The only song I dislike off of Bella Donna is SDMHA!

vivfox 09-16-2008 10:17 PM

Up until 2005 I would have said Highwayman right off the bat. But then when Stevie told Jim Ladd she was gonna perform it in her Vegas act I got very excited and got into it for the first time.
I voted off Stop Draggin' because I never really liked it all that much. It was the lead single from Bella Donna and being the huge SN fan that I was/am, I pretended to like it when people commented about it to me.

ontheEdgeof17 09-16-2008 11:56 PM

Highwayman.

I like it.

Think About It better stay around for awhile. :cool:

Finally...someone who is speaking my language.:nod:

Musicman408 09-17-2008 12:03 PM

Man, pretty impressive when a polling option gets 40 percent when there are 10 options.:nod:

How did your feeling about Highwayman change when you realized Stevie just likes to say **** thats not really true in most of her interviews :laugh:

Huh? The song is basically about men she's been involved w in The Industry. She's put a romantic twist on what was often not a very romantic situation with these guys. Or at least not what she felt a romantic situation should be. She's said this quite frequently in interviews, esp. at the time BD was released.

Hawkeye 09-17-2008 05:03 PM

i was refering to her interview about how she was going to play highwayman when she did not.

starshine 09-17-2008 06:13 PM

This isn't easy but I voted for Think About It.....it'll get harder and harder as the rounds go on.........:shrug:
